4.11 Signal routing switches
A number of the GPIO signals of the nRF9160 are routed through analog switches for use for onboard
functionality or having them available on the pin headers for external circuitry or Arduino type shields.
4.11.1 Interface MCU disconnect switches
The IF MCU DISCONNECT mode can be enabled using the switches shown in the schematics.
